The most qualified person for the court is rarely nominated or confirmed. Roberts was the exception. Political calculations come into play, and for this one, we just had to have a woman, and the other women mentioned might not have made it. I don't like this quasi quota system for the court. There is a much deeper bench of while males for the court on the conservative side of the ledger, with unimpeachable credentials, much deeper. That is just the way it is at the moment. It might change in a decade, but a decade hence is not now.

Torie, the potus said today that she was the most qualified person for the job. You have just admitted that she's probably not. If you disagree with the potus, then how can you trust him on this pick?
